The Vizcaya Bridge is a transporter bridge that links the towns of Portugalete and Las Arenas (part of Getxo) in the Biscay province of Spain, crossing the mouth of the Nervion River. People in the area, and even the official website, commonly call it the Puente Colgante , although its structure is quite different from a suspension bridge.Getxo · 9.4km from Bilbao

Zubizuri
No. 8 of Best Things to Do in Basque Country

Zubizuri

4.1
5.0/5
14 reviews
Zubizuri was completed in 1994 and designed by Calatrava. The parabolic arch stands 14.6m high and is formed from a curved steel pipe with a diameter of 75 cm, resulting in an exquisite design. The bridge's technical design is also rigorous, featuring 6 shock absorbers, which allowed Calatrava to create a pedestrian bridge that spans the Nervion River and complements the city's style while largely ensuring its structural integrity.Bilbao · 691m from downtown

5.0/5

Founded in 1748, Bilboko Donejakue Katedrala is located at the end of the Santiago Pilgrimage Route and is the city symbol of Santiago. The church has a unique style that belongs to the style of Baroque architects. The arched openings and decorative columns on the facade of the church are ingenious, using a distinctive vertical composition form. There are three promenades in the shape of arch bridges in the church, all of which are more than 90 meters in length and are very gorgeous. According to legend, the archbishops of Chile have been buried here, so it has become a holy place for pilgrims to worship.Bilbao · 1.1km from downtown

The church was built in Santiago in the 17th century. It is dedicated to James, one of the 12 disciples of Christ. He was revered as the patron saint of the Christian country of Spain in the 18th century. It flourished due to the pilgrims. The side corridor is a pilgrimage route that can be walked around the church. The remains of James are placed in the underground altar.

The puppy is part of the Guggenheim Museum, one of the exhibits. If you want to check in, you need to go early in the morning or at night to avoid the crowds.
